Observation details
Crazy annual flight! One of the smaller flights I have witnessed, possibly due to it being a tad earlier than our biggest flights (May 18th to 20th). First flock of 9 appeared at 7:22, this flock was flying pretty low over the river headed north, gaining height as they went. The next flock of 102 followed shortly after, this flock was at the typical Overland Passage height, headed NW directly over my head. After the first 2 flocks, I was expecting a large flight, so I notified several people of the flight. To my surprise, that was the end of the flight for the evening.
